The aim of this study was to establish the effect of different seed treatments on germination
,
and the growth
of the embryonic stem and the radicle of tomato and pepper varieties. Four treatments were used in the
study: MIX [(Coveron + zinc (Zn 0.5%) + boron (B 0.025%)]; Coveron; zinc (ZnSO
4
, Zn 0.5%) and boron
(B 0.025%). The treatments were applied on seeds of following four pepper varieties: Šorokšari, Somborka,
Kraljica, and Mirtima and three tomato varieties: Rio Grande, Saint Pierre, and Tomato apple of Novi Sad
(Novosadski jabučar). Germination and the growth increase of both the embryonic stem (cm) and the radicle
(cm) were observed in the germination cabinets and pots containing soil in two laboratories – locations. Af-
ter the treatment applied to the pepper seeds and testing in the laboratory germination cabinet the following
was established: i) the maximum increase in germination of 90% was when the MIX and Zn treatment was
applied... to seeds, ii) the growth increase of embryonic stems of 2.7 cm was recorded when the MIX treatment
was applied, iii) the growth increase of radicles of 1.7 cm was gained when the Coveron and MIX treatment
was applied. Tests performed in pots showed that Coveron was the most efficient treatment. Treatments on
tomato seeds during the seed testing in the germination cabinet provided: vi) the germination increase of 13%
with the MIX treatment, vii) the growth increase of the embryonic stem of 2.6 cm with the same treatment,
vii) the growth increase of 1.7 cm of radicles. Coveron was the most efficient treatment in tests in pots.
